Bank of America ROVAL 400

Charlotte Motor Speedway’s fall playoff race on the ROVAL, the road course that combines the oval with an infield circuit.

What it is

The speedway’s fall race runs on the ROVAL, the 2.28-mile road course that combines the oval’s banking with an infield circuit, and it’s a NASCAR playoff race, which makes it the more consequential of the track’s two weekends. Practice, qualifying and support races fill the days before.

Schedule

• Green flag 2:00 pm Sunday
• Gates open several hours before; check the speedway’s site for the weekend’s full schedule

Plan your visit

Arrive by mid-morning, park where the speedway directs, and plan two hours to leave; the traffic at I-85 Exit 49 is the worst the metro produces. Ear protection for everyone, coolers within the posted size limit, clear bags for the gate. Our speedway guide covers tickets, camping and where to eat in Concord.
